var blurWindow = new Window() { Background = Brushes.Black Opacity = 0.4 AllowsTransparency = true  WindowStyle = WindowStyle.None WindowState = WindowState.Maximized }; blurWindow.Show(); yourpopupwindow.show(); //show popup window or dialog here

Hello Devendra For blur background  first you have to make image to be transparent and then you have to set AllowsTransparency=True for WPF window or WPF page. then you have to set its transparency. you can check example here. http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/015c2d/color-full-login-form-in-wpf-windows-application/

I ran into the same problem last year. Have a look at my approach at: https://github.com/ConfusedHorse/BlurryControls

Thanks neha But this wouldn't produce blur on the background it simply make a translucent window. I want blur window as we have seen on the titlebar of windows 7.

Hi Nirav sir Thank you for your reply I also tried this way but sub child controls are looking blurry. Blur is not shown behind the window
